Do I need an Intel cpu for this? #46

Open wweissborn opened 3 years ago

wweissborn commented 3 years ago

I'm running a threadripper 2950 maxed with 128gb ram. Base OS is Windows 10 on which I then run VMware Workstation Pro. In that I am running Ubuntu 20.04 (with virtualization turned on for that VM). But qemu barfs with:

qemu-system-x86_64: error: failed to set MSR 0xe1 to 0x0 qemu-system-x86_64: /build/qemu-virgil/parts/qemu/build/target/i386/kvm.c:2947: kvm_put_msrs: Assertion `ret == cpu->kvm_msr_buf->nmsrs' failed. /home/wweissborn/snap/sosumi/common/launch: line 29: 4531 Aborted

followed by what looks like a core-dump.

Am I pushing the envelope too hard here? Any thoughts on what, if anything to change in the launch script? Bill W

I doubt it's your CPU at fault, but the nested virtualisation. I've never tested that, sorry.

Suggestion: Live-boot Ubuntu and then test it
